Ledger Partners with Brink To Support Bitcoin Developers 

Ledger is proud to announce its collaboration with Bitcoin research and development center, Brink. As part of this partnership, Ledger is donating $5 to Brink for each Ledger Bitcoin hardware wallet sold. The funds will be allocated to help strengthen the Bitcoin network and developers through funding, education, and mentoring.

So far, Ledger has contributed $50k to Brink thanks to the campaign, and our collaboration is set to continue. Speaking about the partnership, Executive Director of Brink Mike Schmidt said,

I’m excited about this […] ongoing campaign with Ledger. Not only is Ledger providing hardware signing devices for individuals to secure their Bitcoin, but they are also, through their contributions to Brink, helping to secure the underlying Bitcoin network itself”
